Mary-catherine’s Bio

I have experience in childcare with children of all ages, 0-12, and also have experience working with teenagers through church youth groups. Some of my hobbies include being crafty, especially crochet, reading, baseball (I love baseball), and generally being outdoors. While, like everyone, I have my personal hobbies, I enjoy experiencing new things, especially through the eyes of children.

While children are in my care I engage with them in the things they enjoy, and also try to introduce new concepts, without being pushy. Some fun things I have done for children while babysitting include spending time with older children reading a novel over several weeks, and showing up with ingredients for caramel popcorn; those are some of my favorite memories. Not only do those things pass time and provide entertainment, they also help develop healthy relationships between adult and child, which is so important to help your child feel comfortable and happy in someone else' s care.
